export default {
  modules: [
    '@nuxtjs/robots'
  ],
  robots: {

  }
}

Default: robots.config

rules

Robots config

If you need to use function in any rule, you need to create a config file through the configPath option

export default [
  { UserAgent: '*' },
  { Disallow: '/' },
  { BlankLine: true },
  { Comment: 'Comment here' },
      
  // Be aware that this will NOT work on target: 'static' mode
  { Sitemap: (req) => `https://${req.headers.host}/sitemap.xml` }
]

output:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

# Comment here
Sitemap: https://robots.nuxtjs.org/sitemap.xml

The keys and values available:

UserAgent = User-agent
CrawlDelay = Crawl-delay
Disallow = Disallow
Allow = Allow
Host = Host
Sitemap = Sitemap
CleanParam = Clean-param
Comment = # Comment
BlankLine = Add blank line

Note: Don't worry, keys are parsed with case insensitivity and special characters.
